Misinformation on McCartney Death Admitted

The McCartney family spokesman, Geoff Baker, all but confirmed Thursday the
PEOPLE Magazine story that Linda McCartney, the 56-year-old wife of former
Beatle Sir Paul McCartney, died at the family ranch in Tucson, AZ, and not
in Santa Barbara, CA, as reporters initially had been led to believe. Baker
said he misled reporters to protect Sir Paul and the couple's four
children. "If I had said where she died, [the ranch] would have been
overrun straight away, and they needed time, because of their grief," he
said. "Morally, I have done nothing wrong, and legally I have done nothing
wrong," Baker said. "I am just trying to keep this family together."
